Strategic pricing is a game-changing process for business-to-business pricing in today’s highly competitive global markets.

It continues to have a significant, positive impact on the profitability of companies that have embraced and employed it effectively. It is not unusual for companies to increase their bottom line by two to three points or more within the first two years after implementation. After all, what company doesn’t want to add another three hundred thousand dollars to the bottom line for every ten million dollars in sales? And the real win is that these companies are also growing their businesses and improving customer satisfaction at the same time.

#B2B Strategic Pricing tweet Book01: Game-Changing Pricing Strategies for Manufacturing and Service Companies aims to provide business managers and marketing executives with that exact same advantage by arming them with the understanding of effective strategic pricing. This book, written by strategic-pricing specialist and ProfitSmart Solutions LLC founder Bob Bonacorsi, was designed to deliver practical yet comprehensive insights into the why, how, and who of successful strategic pricing. It was also written to help managers and marketers effectively implement and integrate the strategic-pricing process into their own organization.

Bob consolidates more than twenty years of marketing, product development, operations management, and business process experience. Having held a variety of leadership positions himself, Bob has gained key insight into the importance of pricing, an insight that many other business leaders have missed out on. In #B2B Strategic Pricing tweet, Bob aims to share that insight.

Readers will discover why pricing is the most important profit driver and how strategic pricing is absolutely critical in optimizing prices. It outlines the basic steps on implementing and integrating strategic pricing into their business and how exactly strategic pricing can increase their customers’ satisfaction. It provides the insight to prevent the “cowboying” of prices that increase sales volume but damage profit margins.

The phrase communities of practice is relatively new; the concept and its utility is not. Simply put, a community of practice is a learning community. When people realize that they can benefit from sharing their knowledge, experience and insights with like-minded and similarly-motivated people, the seed for a community of practice gets planted. E-learning communities, continuing education groups, cooperative education groups and apprenticeship programs are all, in some form or fashion, communities of practice.

In a few rare instances, a community of practice will build and nurture itself, with little apparent or active management. Much more common is the case whereby a community of practice needs conscious and thoughtful input to be conceived, nurtured and brought to flourish. When a community of practice is implemented correctly, it becomes a powerful and enabling tool for improving productivity, encouraging professional development and creating a culture of continuous learning in an organization.

Expert knowledge disseminators and learning facilitators, two communities experts--Mike Hower and Michael Prevou--work with corporate learning expert Mitchell Levy to show you, in their very actionable new book, how to get a community of practice initiative off the ground and drive adoption in your organization. In their last several years of work in this pathbreaking area, both authors have repeatedly been asked how to get a community defined, how to measure its value and how to keep a valuable community successful. Their book is a direct result of such questioning; indeed the authors demonstrate how communities of practice are the killer app of knowledge management. This is a practical and implementable volume that provides vital tips for knowledge leaders, managers and facilitators who support these communities in such a way that they make a positive contribution to creating and sharing organizational knowledge--a contribution that engages people and leads to a competitive advantage in today's business environment.

Thought leaders advance the marketplace of ideas by proposing actionable, commercially relevant, research-backed, "new points" of view. They engage in and showcase innovative thinking as opposed to churning out product-focused, brand-centric white papers, or "curated" content that mimics others' ideas. But while individual thought leaders are in plentiful supply (at least, those who self-identify as such), many organizations struggle to establish their thought leadership approach. If you recognize the importance of differentiating yourself to clients by offering compelling points of view that are intriguing, innovative, inspiring-and wholly relevant to "them"-this book is for you. Authors "Dr. Liz Alexander" and "Craig Badings," who have more than 50 years of consulting experience between them, have devised a series of questions that will provoke you to consider all the elements necessary to execute a successful organizational thought leadership campaign. The authors have done the preliminary thinking for you so that your organization can better leverage your value in your industry. This book takes a different approach to many who see thought leadership as part of a short-term product marketing, advertising, or PR strategy. It will ensure that you embed thought leadership across the entire organization and centralize it as part of your client-centric culture. Many organizations are squandering time, money, and effort on initiatives that do not move the needle in terms of establishing a differentiated brand identity, deep trust, and loyal followership. Arm yourself with this small yet immensely powerful book and that will no longer be something you have to worry about.

To advance education about ICT standardization, comprehensive and up-to-date teaching materials must be available. With the support of the European Commission, ETSI has developed this textbook to facilitate education on ICT standardization, and to raise the knowledge level of ICT standardization-related topics among lecturers and students in higher education, in particular in the fields of engineering, business administration and law. Readers of this book are not required to have any previous knowledge about standardization. They are introduced firstly to the key concepts of standards and standardization, different elements of the ecosystem and how they interact, as well as the procedures required for the production of standardization documents. Then, readers are taken to the next level by addressing aspects related to standardization such as innovation, strategy, business, and economics. This textbook is an attempt to make ICT standardization accessible and understandable to students. It covers the essentials that are required to get a good overview of the field. The book is organized in chapters that are self-contained, although it would be advantageous to read the book from cover to cover. Each chapter begins with a list of learning objectives and key messages. The text is enriched with examples and case studies from real standardization practice to illustrate the key theoretical concepts. Each chapter also includes a quiz to be used as a self-assessment learning activity. Furthermore, each book chapter includes a glossary and lists of abbreviations and references. Alongside the textbook, we have produced a set of slides that are intended to serve as complementary teaching materials in face-to-face teaching sessions. For all interested parties there is also an electronic version of the textbook as well as the accompanying slides that can be downloaded for free from the ETSI website (www.etsi.org/standardization-education).

Most startups end in failure. Almost every failed startup has a product. What failed startups don't have are enough customers. Traction Book changes that. We provide startup founders and employees with the framework successful companies use to get traction. It helps you determine which marketing channel will be your key to growth. "If you can get even a single distribution channel to work, you have a great business." -- Peter Thiel, billionare PayPal founder The number one traction mistake founders and employees make is not dedicating as much time to traction as they do to developing a product. This shortsighted approach has startups trying random tactics -- some ads, a blog post or two -- in an unstructured way that will likely fail. We developed our traction framework called Bullseye with the help of the founders behind several of the biggest companies and organizations in the world like Jimmy Wales (Wikipedia), Alexis Ohanian (Reddit), Paul English (Kayak.com), Alex Pachikov (Evernote) and more. We interviewed over forty successful founders and researched countless more traction stories -- pulling out the repeatable tactics and strategies they used to get traction. "Many entrepreneurs who build great products simply don't have a good distribution strategy." -- Mark Andreessen, venture capitalist Traction will show you how some of the biggest internet companies have grown, and give you the same tools and framework to get traction.
